Hey @Rowan2019, so sorry to hear that you're dealing with a stubborn allergy issue. My kitty has had a similar problem since I got her a year ago. She gets sores in one spot under her arm, so not the same as your kitty, but the vet believes it is a similar allergy problem.
We've gone through...
Hi all,
Back again with another post about little Daisy's skin problem. Long story short: I got Daisy last year, she's had skin abrasions since the time I got her that have come back every 2-3 months. Always the same spot in her armpit. We've tried a multitude of things - antibacterial...
Thank you all! Going to try the allergy medications mixed in some wet food and give that a shot. She’s on a hydrolyzed diet per the vet’s recommendation at the moment. We also tried children’s Benadryl awhile ago but she just spit it all out. A picky little girl but I’m determined to get an...
Hi all,
I've been a frequent poster about my Daisy's skin problem for the past several months. We've had some good months of no problems and now we're back to the same problem again.
At this point I'm leaning more towards allergies as the potential trigger, as there are minimal stressors in...
How long did these symptoms last? My cat is experiencing very similar side effects from an injection of Depomedrol. Was there anything the vet was able to do or did you just have to wait it out?
Neither vet that I've visited has brought it up to do a skin biopsy/culture. I thought about asking today at the vet but he kept saying that it seemed fine and wasn't a big deal (obviously I feel like it's the opposite since we've been dealing with this problem for over 3 months now...)
I had...
Hi all,
I posted awhile back about some skin lesions on my kitty that had persisted over 2 months. At one of our recent trips to the vet, they wanted to try a ringworm treatment (Intrafungol) and a bacterial treatment (Clindamycin). We are finishing up the fifth week of Intrafungol, and the...
They used the wood's lamp during the second visit and it came back negative. The third visit was when they decided to give the antibiotic for ringworm just in case. I'm not sure why they didn't decide to do a skin scrape or biopsy. Possibly not equipped to do it...but I don't know. There is an...
Hi,
Coming here because I've had 3 trips to the vet for skin lesions on my cat that have still not been properly diagnosed (as each treatment has not gotten rid of the problem). I adopted Daisy in June and noticed a skin lesion on her leg 3 days after I got her. First vet visit, they thought it...
